It's six oh two, buddy, 48 00:02:38,240 --> 00:02:40,920 Speaker 3: I was. I was high on the Susac move. The 49 00:02:41,080 --> 00:02:43,639 Speaker 3: day they made it. I was like, oh, I know 50 00:02:43,760 --> 00:02:45,560 Speaker 3: Dan Sussack. He was a first round draft pick of 51 00:02:45,600 --> 00:02:45,960 Speaker 3: the A's. 52 00:02:46,440 --> 00:02:47,440 Speaker 2: That guy's a good player. 53 00:02:47,919 --> 00:02:51,240 Speaker 3: And then when we went to spring training, our very 54 00:02:51,280 --> 00:02:53,560 Speaker 3: first game Peoria, we drove over there. 55 00:02:53,600 --> 00:02:54,760 Speaker 2: The Murphy family was there. 56 00:02:55,040 --> 00:02:56,919 Speaker 3: I remember the first at bat I saw him take 57 00:02:56,919 --> 00:02:59,200 Speaker 3: and he shot a base hit to right field. 58 00:02:59,520 --> 00:03:02,120 Speaker 2: And you know me, man, I love a guy. I 59 00:03:02,160 --> 00:03:02,880 Speaker 2: love a hitter. 60 00:03:04,160 --> 00:03:08,400 Speaker 4: I won't say something so memorable saying come on say it. 61 00:03:08,480 --> 00:03:10,480 Speaker 2: You know you want to say it. I almost said something, 62 00:03:10,520 --> 00:03:13,120 Speaker 2: you guys would have clipped forever. I'm so glad. I 63 00:03:13,160 --> 00:03:15,760 Speaker 2: paused myself. I'm so close. I'm so glad. I paused myself. 64 00:03:15,800 --> 00:03:18,560 Speaker 2: I love a hitter who goes to the opposite field. 65 00:03:18,639 --> 00:03:19,919 Speaker 2: How's that okay? All right? 66 00:03:19,960 --> 00:03:23,240 Speaker 3: I love I just I that pleases me as a 67 00:03:23,240 --> 00:03:26,600 Speaker 3: baseball fan. And like, for example, I watched Tatisan Machado, 68 00:03:26,680 --> 00:03:28,639 Speaker 3: even though the Giants took two out of three. Those 69 00:03:28,680 --> 00:03:31,040 Speaker 3: guys will will bang balls to right field and just 70 00:03:31,160 --> 00:03:33,480 Speaker 3: and and and cruise into second with doubles all the time, 71 00:03:33,520 --> 00:03:39,080 Speaker 3: and it will please you. Okay, Danny Seussak did that 72 00:03:39,120 --> 00:03:40,640 Speaker 3: the very first time I saw him hit, and I 73 00:03:40,680 --> 00:03:42,960 Speaker 3: was like, I like this guy's approach right away. And 74 00:03:43,080 --> 00:03:46,800 Speaker 3: sure enough, last night, Buddy, right away, first thing single 75 00:03:46,840 --> 00:03:48,240 Speaker 3: to my center, I'm a saying yeah. 76 00:03:48,280 --> 00:03:51,000 Speaker 4: And he had that approach really all throughout spring training, 77 00:03:51,040 --> 00:03:53,000 Speaker 4: and then the first couple of weeks of spring training 78 00:03:53,040 --> 00:03:55,480 Speaker 4: he was one of the hottest hitters on the entire roster. 79 00:03:55,840 --> 00:03:58,920 Speaker 4: And I remember the day after the Roll five Draft 80 00:03:59,000 --> 00:04:01,640 Speaker 4: where the Giants were able to steal him away from 81 00:04:01,680 --> 00:04:06,080 Speaker 4: the Oakland Slash Sacramento Slash Las Vegas A's, and I 82 00:04:06,120 --> 00:04:07,960 Speaker 4: remember we talked about it on the show. We were like, 83 00:04:08,320 --> 00:04:10,200 Speaker 4: why was this guy even in the Rule five draft. 84 00:04:10,360 --> 00:04:13,600 Speaker 4: This is a first rounder who had a career two 85 00:04:13,600 --> 00:04:16,280 Speaker 4: to eighty eighty batting average in the minor leagues as 86 00:04:16,279 --> 00:04:19,120 Speaker 4: a catcher. He's not that old. I didn't understand why 87 00:04:19,160 --> 00:04:21,280 Speaker 4: the A's were given up on him. I mean, shout 88 00:04:21,279 --> 00:04:24,200 Speaker 4: out shay Lingley years and Tyler Soderestrom. It's great to 89 00:04:24,200 --> 00:04:26,279 Speaker 4: have those guys in the system kind of forced them out. 90 00:04:26,320 --> 00:04:29,720 Speaker 4: But this was a great signing being able to steal 91 00:04:29,800 --> 00:04:32,680 Speaker 4: him way in the Rule five draft, which almost automatically 92 00:04:32,720 --> 00:04:34,600 Speaker 4: put him on the roster for this year. But he 93 00:04:34,680 --> 00:04:37,039 Speaker 4: definitely earned that backup role throughout the entire spring. 94 00:04:37,120 --> 00:04:39,479 Speaker 3: Drew There's no question, and you know, listen, we're not 95 00:04:39,520 --> 00:04:42,320 Speaker 3: going to lose our heads here and start, you know, 96 00:04:42,440 --> 00:04:45,080 Speaker 3: making grand proclamations. But the point of the matter is 97 00:04:45,080 --> 00:04:48,880 Speaker 3: is that I think you can kind of say he's 98 00:04:48,880 --> 00:04:50,600 Speaker 3: a better here than Pat Bailey. I don't think that's 99 00:04:50,600 --> 00:04:54,520 Speaker 3: a controversial statement. I think his minor league career showed 100 00:04:54,520 --> 00:04:56,000 Speaker 3: that he was a better here than Pad Bailey. And 101 00:04:56,040 --> 00:04:59,520 Speaker 3: I think you've already seen in one major league game that. 102 00:04:59,480 --> 00:05:00,880 Speaker 2: He's a better than Pat Bailey. 103 00:05:00,920 --> 00:05:02,839 Speaker 3: So I'm just gonna say, listen, we all love Pat 104 00:05:02,839 --> 00:05:07,120 Speaker 3: Bailey's defense, for sure. We all struggle with Pat Bailey's offense. 105 00:05:07,320 --> 00:05:10,320 Speaker 3: It's a frustration for many Giants fans. And every time 106 00:05:10,320 --> 00:05:12,960 Speaker 3: he frustrates you, one of two things comes up. One 107 00:05:13,080 --> 00:05:15,679 Speaker 3: but somebody says, yeah, but his defense, and you go, okay, 108 00:05:15,680 --> 00:05:18,000 Speaker 3: I get it. He's a great defensive kid. And then two, 109 00:05:18,320 --> 00:05:20,240 Speaker 3: he'll come up with some sort of clutch knock. Yes, 110 00:05:20,320 --> 00:05:21,960 Speaker 3: he does have a clutch gene. It was in our 111 00:05:22,120 --> 00:05:25,960 Speaker 3: wind package last year. So we've sort of like accepted 112 00:05:25,960 --> 00:05:28,560 Speaker 3: Pat Bailey because of a the platinum glove behind the 113 00:05:28,600 --> 00:05:31,320 Speaker 3: dish and be every now and then a walk off 114 00:05:31,320 --> 00:05:33,640 Speaker 3: inside the parker, you know, and then you see a 115 00:05:33,640 --> 00:05:36,279 Speaker 3: guy like Sussac, You're like, oh, I think this guy's 116 00:05:36,480 --> 00:05:38,839 Speaker 3: going to be a more productive hitter and his susack 117 00:05:38,920 --> 00:05:41,560 Speaker 3: a butcher behind the plate. No, And in fact, he 118 00:05:41,680 --> 00:05:45,280 Speaker 3: won a key abs challenge last night that he said 119 00:05:45,360 --> 00:05:47,279 Speaker 3: was his favorite thing of the night, not going three 120 00:05:47,320 --> 00:05:50,440 Speaker 3: for three with a walk, but saving Ryan Walker from 121 00:05:50,600 --> 00:05:52,960 Speaker 3: walking the first batter he would have face turned a 122 00:05:53,000 --> 00:05:55,359 Speaker 3: walk into a strike three Coal and the smile on 123 00:05:55,400 --> 00:05:56,680 Speaker 3: his face, I know you were in the game so 124 00:05:56,720 --> 00:06:00,200 Speaker 3: you couldn't see the TV once that got overturned. The 125 00:06:00,240 --> 00:06:03,560 Speaker 3: smile on his face was so like in a huge grid, 126 00:06:03,680 --> 00:06:05,080 Speaker 3: like I just pulled that off. 127 00:06:05,160 --> 00:06:06,600 Speaker 2: Yeah, hell yeah. 128 00:06:06,640 --> 00:06:08,640 Speaker 4: I can only imagine what that feeling is like for 129 00:06:08,680 --> 00:06:10,640 Speaker 4: a catcher like see, I told you Blue, I know 130 00:06:10,720 --> 00:06:11,760 Speaker 4: this strike something better than you do. 131 00:06:11,920 --> 00:06:13,600 Speaker 3: He said after the game. He said he wasn't totally 132 00:06:13,640 --> 00:06:15,560 Speaker 3: sure he goes, but I didn't want that guy to 133 00:06:15,600 --> 00:06:16,480 Speaker 3: get on base, so I. 134 00:06:16,400 --> 00:06:19,280 Speaker 2: Thought, well, go for it. And we haven't even talked 135 00:06:19,279 --> 00:06:19,599 Speaker 2: about this. 136 00:06:19,640 --> 00:06:22,280 Speaker 3: By the way, that might have been the closest strike 137 00:06:22,320 --> 00:06:25,799 Speaker 3: I've ever seen. It was the tiniest shade of purple 138 00:06:25,880 --> 00:06:26,760 Speaker 3: on the ye lower right. 139 00:06:26,880 --> 00:06:30,160 Speaker 2: It's touching. We haven't talked about this, though, and I. 140 00:06:30,160 --> 00:06:33,000 Speaker 3: Haven't at least I guess I never really wrapped my 141 00:06:33,000 --> 00:06:35,520 Speaker 3: brain around the fact that when a ball crosses the plate, 142 00:06:35,560 --> 00:06:37,839 Speaker 3: and I'm a hitter, I would have thought the whole 143 00:06:37,880 --> 00:06:40,919 Speaker 3: ball has to be in the strike soon Nope, And 144 00:06:40,960 --> 00:06:43,280 Speaker 3: when did we determine that? When did we determine that, 145 00:06:43,360 --> 00:06:45,400 Speaker 3: like maybe the majority of the ball have to be 146 00:06:45,440 --> 00:06:47,160 Speaker 3: a strike? When do we determine that all it needs 147 00:06:47,160 --> 00:06:48,960 Speaker 3: to be is a millimeter in the strikeson? 148 00:06:49,080 --> 00:06:51,839 Speaker 4: Well, I can say from when I grew up pitching, 149 00:06:51,880 --> 00:06:54,359 Speaker 4: I mean, the old term is painting the black, and 150 00:06:54,440 --> 00:06:56,880 Speaker 4: of course guys like Greg Mannix would paint the black. 151 00:06:56,960 --> 00:06:59,760 Speaker 4: But I guess we really never had this ABS system 152 00:06:59,800 --> 00:07:04,600 Speaker 4: to really kind of dialed down and specifify not that's 153 00:07:04,640 --> 00:07:06,480 Speaker 4: not even the right word, but to like really figure 154 00:07:06,520 --> 00:07:08,400 Speaker 4: out where the strike zone is and how much of 155 00:07:08,440 --> 00:07:10,480 Speaker 4: the ball needs to be touching. Yeah, I wonder if 156 00:07:10,520 --> 00:07:13,480 Speaker 4: that was discussed at all, like when they implemented this 157 00:07:13,560 --> 00:07:15,920 Speaker 4: of how much should be touching. But as soon as 158 00:07:15,960 --> 00:07:17,640 Speaker 4: you touch that box, it's a strike. 159 00:07:17,680 --> 00:07:18,320 Speaker 2: I mean, think about in. 160 00:07:18,360 --> 00:07:21,280 Speaker 3: Tennis, the hawkeye thing. Any part of the tennis ball 161 00:07:21,320 --> 00:07:23,800 Speaker 3: that touches the line is in or out or whatever. 162 00:07:23,960 --> 00:07:26,360 Speaker 3: So so yeah, but I just last night was the 163 00:07:26,400 --> 00:07:28,040 Speaker 3: one that hit me. It is like, we've never really 164 00:07:28,040 --> 00:07:29,960 Speaker 3: talked about how much of the ball needs to be 165 00:07:30,000 --> 00:07:31,520 Speaker 3: in the strike zone, and the answer. 166 00:07:31,240 --> 00:07:33,760 Speaker 2: Is almost none of it has to be in the 167 00:07:33,760 --> 00:07:34,280 Speaker 2: strike zone. 168 00:07:34,360 --> 00:07:37,000 Speaker 3: But anyway, it was fun as heck, and Susak goes 169 00:07:37,000 --> 00:07:39,600 Speaker 3: three for three, and it's gonna be an interesting situation 170 00:07:39,680 --> 00:07:41,480 Speaker 3: going forward because you know, they played Bailey the first 171 00:07:41,520 --> 00:07:43,840 Speaker 3: six games and because they had a couple off days. 172 00:07:43,840 --> 00:07:46,080 Speaker 3: But you know, you always need a backup catcher. Catcher's 173 00:07:46,120 --> 00:07:48,360 Speaker 3: not going one to sixty two, just unless it's Yogi Berra. 174 00:07:48,720 --> 00:07:50,400 Speaker 3: Back in the day, he used to freaking go look 175 00:07:50,400 --> 00:07:52,560 Speaker 3: at Yogi Bear's games played, by the way, he's insane. 176 00:07:53,800 --> 00:07:55,880 Speaker 2: Just go look at Yogi Berra in general. By the way, 177 00:07:55,960 --> 00:07:57,520 Speaker 2: he said, if you watch the Yogi. 178 00:07:57,320 --> 00:08:00,720 Speaker 3: Barrat documentary, which was great, you'll come away going he 179 00:08:00,800 --> 00:08:03,720 Speaker 3: might be the most underrated player in baseball history. So 180 00:08:04,880 --> 00:08:09,280 Speaker 3: but yeah, the idea that Dan Susak is here and 181 00:08:09,320 --> 00:08:12,840 Speaker 3: he's valuable, and Tony Vaitello bro don't be afraid to 182 00:08:12,880 --> 00:08:13,240 Speaker 3: mix him in. 183 00:08:13,520 --> 00:08:15,080 Speaker 2: Is he gonna find a pitcher? Is he gonna be 184 00:08:15,160 --> 00:08:17,360 Speaker 2: Robbie Ray's guy? I don't know. Is he gonna be? 185 00:08:17,480 --> 00:08:18,680 Speaker 2: I mean, that's the question. 186 00:08:19,000 --> 00:08:22,000 Speaker 4: Me and John Joe were talking off air if Robbie 187 00:08:22,080 --> 00:08:25,080 Speaker 4: Ray had any input in this situation, if he didn't 188 00:08:25,080 --> 00:08:26,840 Speaker 4: want to throw the Patrick Bailey. But it's hard for 189 00:08:26,880 --> 00:08:28,960 Speaker 4: me to believe that any pitcher would not want to 190 00:08:28,960 --> 00:08:31,880 Speaker 4: pitch the Patrick Bailey. But I mean Tim lunccambe also 191 00:08:32,080 --> 00:08:34,320 Speaker 4: didn't really want to pitch the Buster Posey for a 192 00:08:34,400 --> 00:08:36,840 Speaker 4: large part of his career in San Francisco. So anything 193 00:08:36,920 --> 00:08:38,520 Speaker 4: is possible when you put it that way and put 194 00:08:38,520 --> 00:08:40,720 Speaker 4: it all on the table. But I'm with you, Patrick 195 00:08:40,760 --> 00:08:43,840 Speaker 4: Bailey still your everyday catcher for now. Daniel Sussak is 196 00:08:43,840 --> 00:08:46,720 Speaker 4: earning more opportunities. I mean, the question is do you 197 00:08:46,880 --> 00:08:49,280 Speaker 4: reward a guy after going three for three to put 198 00:08:49,360 --> 00:08:50,400 Speaker 4: him back in the lineup today. 199 00:08:50,440 --> 00:08:52,320 Speaker 3: That's a great question. We'll learn a little bit about Vitello. 200 00:08:52,400 --> 00:08:53,960 Speaker 3: That was my jock ball guess is we're learning about 201 00:08:53,960 --> 00:08:55,920 Speaker 3: this guy. He likes his regular lineups, man, but he 202 00:08:55,920 --> 00:08:56,520 Speaker 3: can't do that. 203 00:08:56,400 --> 00:08:57,480 Speaker 2: With the catcher. He just can't. 204 00:08:57,480 --> 00:08:59,079 Speaker 4: No, And I would think with Nolan m clay on 205 00:08:59,080 --> 00:09:00,920 Speaker 4: the mound today with the right you'd get Patrick Bailey 206 00:09:00,960 --> 00:09:02,680 Speaker 4: back out there for the leftended bat. But maybe we 207 00:09:02,760 --> 00:09:06,320 Speaker 4: do see more split situations where maybe they take the 208 00:09:06,559 --> 00:09:08,360 Speaker 4: bat out of the hands of Patrick Bailey when he 209 00:09:08,360 --> 00:09:10,000 Speaker 4: does get turned around in his force a bat right. 210 00:09:10,200 --> 00:09:12,719 Speaker 3: I mean maybe every lefty starter you go Sussac. I 211 00:09:12,760 --> 00:09:14,480 Speaker 3: don't know, something like that. But either way, we got 212 00:09:14,520 --> 00:09:16,240 Speaker 3: to call it in because it was fun as heck, 213 00:09:16,280 --> 00:09:18,120 Speaker 3: and I don't know, I left that one feeling pretty 214 00:09:18,160 --> 00:09:20,320 Speaker 3: good because the Mets are a good team and the 215 00:09:20,360 --> 00:09:22,920 Speaker 3: Mets started right out of the gate. Bobachett raced an 216 00:09:23,000 --> 00:09:24,920 Speaker 3: RBI double right out of the gate and the Giants 217 00:09:24,920 --> 00:09:26,840 Speaker 3: were down one nothing. I was like, ah, man, oh, 218 00:09:27,160 --> 00:09:28,880 Speaker 3: I was just thinking out this lineup because you go 219 00:09:28,920 --> 00:09:31,680 Speaker 3: from Boba, you go from Juan Soda to Bobaschett to 220 00:09:32,360 --> 00:09:35,240 Speaker 3: Luis Robert to Mark who was a Viano's hit a 221 00:09:35,240 --> 00:09:37,120 Speaker 3: bomb last night. For them, It's like, man, these guys 222 00:09:37,160 --> 00:09:39,880 Speaker 3: are tough, and yet the Giants held him down, leading 223 00:09:39,920 --> 00:09:44,520 Speaker 3: to first base coach Shane Robinson calling Rob Manfred, and 224 00:09:44,559 --> 00:09:46,480 Speaker 3: Manfred said, wait, when you played teams from New York 225 00:09:46,480 --> 00:09:48,480 Speaker 3: and San Francisco, don't you usually lose? 226 00:09:49,080 --> 00:09:50,200 Speaker 2: He said, don't worry about it. 227 00:09:50,679 --> 00:09:54,280 Speaker 3: Formerly empty suit, current friend of Murf and Marcus put. 228 00:09:54,080 --> 00:09:54,720 Speaker 2: It in the books. 229 00:09:54,920 --> 00:10:02,800 Speaker 3: San Francisco Giants seven New York Mets two. Beautiful faceball, 230 00:10:03,120 --> 00:10:04,080 Speaker 3: beautiful face party. 231 00:10:05,080 --> 00:10:14,719 Speaker 2: Oh yes, beonderful.

True story. 370 00:16:16,840 --> 00:16:18,720 Speaker 3: Now, this guy was living down in southern California.

And when 376 00:16:29,120 --> 00:16:31,680 Speaker 3: he came home, Nesta, instead of freaking out, was just 377 00:16:31,760 --> 00:16:33,320 Speaker 3: laying by the window staring. 378 00:16:33,040 --> 00:16:35,640 Speaker 2: At the ocean, dude. And from that point on, Nesta 379 00:16:36,080 --> 00:16:39,840 Speaker 2: was not a problem. Yeah.

But I think 505 00:22:03,040 --> 00:22:05,640 Speaker 8: just when he's up the bat, you got a guy 506 00:22:05,640 --> 00:22:07,920 Speaker 8: that everybody loves cheering for, and he's one of many 507 00:22:07,920 --> 00:22:11,520 Speaker 8: in the lineup, But I think it's consistently loose when 508 00:22:11,560 --> 00:22:14,240 Speaker 8: he's hitting, regardless of how the at bat goes. And 509 00:22:14,280 --> 00:22:17,359 Speaker 8: then Raffie I mentioned golf, you know, Tiger Oh, I 510 00:22:17,359 --> 00:22:24,400 Speaker 8: guess bad timing. I don't want nothing, all right, Let's 511 00:22:24,440 --> 00:22:28,520 Speaker 8: just say this, Raffie's pretty good about getting like other 512 00:22:28,640 --> 00:22:32,480 Speaker 8: athletes in the past when things were going good, Raffie's 513 00:22:32,520 --> 00:22:35,360 Speaker 8: pretty good about getting fired up at himself and then 514 00:22:35,400 --> 00:22:40,080 Speaker 8: calming things down pretty quick. So say, from the first 515 00:22:40,160 --> 00:22:43,720 Speaker 8: seven eight seconds after a bad at bat, Raffie's always 516 00:22:43,720 --> 00:22:45,879 Speaker 8: a guy that kind of keeps things light hearted and 517 00:22:46,000 --> 00:22:49,000 Speaker 8: keeps the other guys involved in cheering for him. But 518 00:22:49,200 --> 00:22:50,640 Speaker 8: he took it to the max there. 519 00:22:50,640 --> 00:22:53,080 Speaker 2: As far as tonight go, Man oh Man, The Tony v. 520 00:22:53,160 --> 00:22:55,399 Speaker 3: The Wild Ride of a Tony V press conference in 521 00:22:55,440 --> 00:22:58,240 Speaker 3: which he name checks Tiger Woods and then says, wait, 522 00:22:58,840 --> 00:23:01,199 Speaker 3: let me try again. He gets a laugh in the 523 00:23:01,200 --> 00:23:03,760 Speaker 3: press room. Nobody's laughing at Tiger's misfortune. 524 00:23:03,800 --> 00:23:05,919 Speaker 2: Oh wait, I'm sorry. All of the internet is. 525 00:23:05,960 --> 00:23:09,040 Speaker 3: Laughing at Tiger's misfortune. I guess when a guy's like 526 00:23:09,080 --> 00:23:10,680 Speaker 3: a billionaire, you can kind of poke fun. 527 00:23:10,760 --> 00:23:12,280 Speaker 2: But it is, of course a sad story. 528 00:23:12,280 --> 00:23:14,040 Speaker 3: What's going on with Tiger and what appears to be 529 00:23:14,080 --> 00:23:16,719 Speaker 3: an addiction to pain pills, and the body cam footage 530 00:23:16,760 --> 00:23:18,880 Speaker 3: yesterday was all over the internet. 531 00:23:18,920 --> 00:23:19,720 Speaker 2: But I digress. 532 00:23:19,840 --> 00:23:21,639 Speaker 3: That was the analogy that Toddy V was making the 533 00:23:21,720 --> 00:23:24,320 Speaker 3: Raffie devers about. I guess he was trying to say 534 00:23:24,320 --> 00:23:26,240 Speaker 3: that Tiger, if he hits a bad shot or something, 535 00:23:26,280 --> 00:23:28,520 Speaker 3: can can kind of get pissed and then correct quickly. 536 00:23:28,840 --> 00:23:30,520 Speaker 3: And that's what you're saying. RAFFI did have a bad 537 00:23:30,520 --> 00:23:32,480 Speaker 3: at bat prior to his home run. He struck out 538 00:23:33,320 --> 00:23:36,880 Speaker 3: and then he and then he homered with that big old, 539 00:23:36,960 --> 00:23:39,399 Speaker 3: big man, grown man strength home run. 540 00:23:39,960 --> 00:23:40,679 Speaker 2: Where were you for that? 541 00:23:41,640 --> 00:23:45,560 Speaker 4: I was up in a club level taking down a 542 00:23:45,800 --> 00:23:48,600 Speaker 4: sour dough bread bull clam chowder last night. 543 00:23:48,920 --> 00:23:51,320 Speaker 2: Yeah, dude, that a regular. I love the clam chowder. 544 00:23:51,600 --> 00:23:53,679 Speaker 4: I like getting it usually on a cold night, not 545 00:23:53,720 --> 00:23:55,480 Speaker 4: that cold at the ballpark last night, but I was 546 00:23:55,480 --> 00:23:57,000 Speaker 4: walking around, I was like, I can go for some 547 00:23:57,119 --> 00:23:57,720 Speaker 4: chowder right now. 548 00:23:57,760 --> 00:23:59,920 Speaker 2: Sounds like if if the mood hits right. Yeah. 549 00:24:00,040 --> 00:24:01,760 Speaker 3: So anyway, we talked about the home run and by 550 00:24:01,800 --> 00:24:04,520 Speaker 3: the way, shout out Reggae Friday the Green for your enjoyment. 551 00:24:06,200 --> 00:24:09,480 Speaker 3: There you go very good. And so when we saw 552 00:24:09,600 --> 00:24:12,000 Speaker 3: Devers get back to the dugout, to my eye was 553 00:24:12,040 --> 00:24:15,239 Speaker 3: Harrison Bader. Now there's a still photo of Jung Hu 554 00:24:15,320 --> 00:24:18,480 Speaker 3: Lee near him, but it all happened very fast, and 555 00:24:18,520 --> 00:24:20,719 Speaker 3: they cut to the dugout and I saw Harrison Bader 556 00:24:20,840 --> 00:24:25,200 Speaker 3: with a map and he slid it onto Rafael Devers's 557 00:24:25,320 --> 00:24:28,520 Speaker 3: head and then quickly Devers ripped it off. 558 00:24:28,840 --> 00:24:31,240 Speaker 2: So it all happened very fast, and I said, what 559 00:24:31,440 --> 00:24:31,960 Speaker 2: just happened? 560 00:24:32,000 --> 00:24:36,159 Speaker 3: And my eagle eyed bride, the lovely Candiace, said that 561 00:24:36,280 --> 00:24:37,399 Speaker 3: was a unicorn mask. 562 00:24:37,440 --> 00:24:39,160 Speaker 2: I said, really, I couldn't tell. 563 00:24:39,640 --> 00:24:43,000 Speaker 3: And then Devers ran down the wedding line of congratulations 564 00:24:43,000 --> 00:24:44,920 Speaker 3: and then he was just holding it in his hand 565 00:24:44,960 --> 00:24:47,879 Speaker 3: for a while, and then I guess. 566 00:24:47,800 --> 00:24:51,240 Speaker 2: There was a still photo. Yeah, I've got the show. 567 00:24:51,240 --> 00:24:53,920 Speaker 2: Everybody on the screen. Oh, Tony's got it. He's about 568 00:24:53,920 --> 00:24:55,399 Speaker 2: to throw it up on the live stream. It's a 569 00:24:55,440 --> 00:24:56,159 Speaker 2: heck of a picture. 570 00:24:56,240 --> 00:24:58,399 Speaker 4: So this is all I saw because I was at 571 00:24:58,400 --> 00:25:00,000 Speaker 4: the stadium last night, so I didn't get to see 572 00:25:00,119 --> 00:25:03,320 Speaker 4: the interaction. But the way you're describing it makes it 573 00:25:03,320 --> 00:25:05,400 Speaker 4: sound like Deverest thought he was like getting kidnapped. 574 00:25:05,400 --> 00:25:07,840 Speaker 2: It does feel it, well, it feels like he's a hostage. 575 00:25:08,280 --> 00:25:09,879 Speaker 2: They just throw it over his face. You can go 576 00:25:09,920 --> 00:25:12,240 Speaker 2: to YouTube TV. Tony, I know you have you not 577 00:25:12,280 --> 00:25:13,560 Speaker 2: right now. Don't worry about right now.

They took the first one. 695 00:29:33,560 --> 00:29:35,360 Speaker 3: I don't know, am I feeling too good? 696 00:29:35,400 --> 00:29:35,800 Speaker 2: Marcus? 697 00:29:35,880 --> 00:29:38,960 Speaker 4: I don't know, maybe a little too good, but it 698 00:29:38,960 --> 00:29:41,440 Speaker 4: feels good to finally watch your ball club win a 699 00:29:41,480 --> 00:29:44,240 Speaker 4: game in person at your home stadium. That's the first 700 00:29:44,280 --> 00:29:47,640 Speaker 4: game they've won at Oracle Park this entire season. Obviously 701 00:29:47,640 --> 00:29:49,479 Speaker 4: they've only played three before, but they were swept by 702 00:29:49,480 --> 00:29:52,840 Speaker 4: the Yankees, and there was a feeling of disappointment leaving 703 00:29:52,840 --> 00:29:55,880 Speaker 4: the ballpark that last Saturday against the Yankees, Like, damn, 704 00:29:55,960 --> 00:29:57,480 Speaker 4: now they're going on the road. They're going down to 705 00:29:57,520 --> 00:29:59,840 Speaker 4: San Diego. Great start for them on the road, wouldn't 706 00:29:59,840 --> 00:30:02,479 Speaker 4: that's But to come home win game one kind of 707 00:30:02,480 --> 00:30:05,600 Speaker 4: set that tone. Pull out the unicorn mask. I mean, 708 00:30:05,680 --> 00:30:08,560 Speaker 4: it felt like a vibe last night and even Robbie 709 00:30:08,640 --> 00:30:10,800 Speaker 4: Ray to Ryan Walker in the sixth inning, which we 710 00:30:10,840 --> 00:30:12,080 Speaker 4: really haven't talked about too much. 711 00:30:12,360 --> 00:30:13,440 Speaker 2: We need to talk about that. 712 00:30:13,720 --> 00:30:17,000 Speaker 4: So Blade didwell getting the old school saved three innings 713 00:30:17,080 --> 00:30:20,320 Speaker 4: last night. It was another great outing by the Giants 714 00:30:20,400 --> 00:30:24,560 Speaker 4: bullpen and another promising performance by this offense. Who did 715 00:30:24,600 --> 00:30:26,400 Speaker 4: that against a pitcher last year that was in the 716 00:30:26,400 --> 00:30:27,520 Speaker 4: All Star Game five to. 717 00:30:27,520 --> 00:30:29,320 Speaker 3: One to zero Texans is My favorite inning was the 718 00:30:29,320 --> 00:30:31,640 Speaker 3: one where the Giants went hitless with runners in scoring 719 00:30:31,680 --> 00:30:33,880 Speaker 3: position and left the bases loaded, and you feel like 720 00:30:33,920 --> 00:30:35,200 Speaker 3: he's being negative, but. 721 00:30:35,280 --> 00:30:36,360 Speaker 2: Scored two runs. 722 00:30:37,120 --> 00:30:40,920 Speaker 3: Sackflies from Jung hou Lee and Harrison Battery goes base 723 00:30:41,000 --> 00:30:42,240 Speaker 3: running in situational hitting. 724 00:30:42,280 --> 00:30:44,960 Speaker 2: I'll call that Tony V. Ball'll get the job done. 725 00:30:45,040 --> 00:30:48,040 Speaker 3: Two sackflies station to station, Young hoo Lee and Harrison 726 00:30:48,080 --> 00:30:50,160 Speaker 3: Bader both came through to a job. I know we 727 00:30:50,200 --> 00:30:52,000 Speaker 3: have Tony V coming up the replay. That was an 728 00:30:52,120 --> 00:30:55,440 Speaker 3: enjoyable But let's talk about Ryan Walker. Yeah, So Robbie 729 00:30:55,480 --> 00:30:58,480 Speaker 3: Ray was good, not amazing, He was good. He you know, 730 00:30:58,520 --> 00:31:01,240 Speaker 3: he walked the leadoff here three times. 731 00:31:01,280 --> 00:31:03,320 Speaker 2: He had leadoff walks to start the innings yesterday, And 732 00:31:03,360 --> 00:31:03,760 Speaker 2: I was like. 733 00:31:03,720 --> 00:31:06,800 Speaker 3: Bro come on, man, what are we doing ninety So, 734 00:31:07,040 --> 00:31:09,320 Speaker 3: I mean he wound up going five and a third, 735 00:31:09,560 --> 00:31:12,640 Speaker 3: three walks, only three hits, but he winds up throwing 736 00:31:13,000 --> 00:31:16,520 Speaker 3: a fair amount of pitches, seven punchies, seven punchies. He's 737 00:31:16,520 --> 00:31:19,000 Speaker 3: got that strikeout. So because ninety six pitches in five 738 00:31:19,000 --> 00:31:20,720 Speaker 3: and a third. Yeah, And it was actually I was 739 00:31:20,720 --> 00:31:22,240 Speaker 3: surprised to see him start the sixth inning. I was like, 740 00:31:22,240 --> 00:31:23,880 Speaker 3: oh man, it's twenty V going full Logan web on 741 00:31:23,960 --> 00:31:25,640 Speaker 3: us here he's gonna pay. But he only wanted him 742 00:31:25,640 --> 00:31:26,960 Speaker 3: to get the first left handed hit her out and 743 00:31:26,960 --> 00:31:28,480 Speaker 3: then go to the bullpen because his work was done. 744 00:31:28,560 --> 00:31:29,920 Speaker 2: Ninety six pitches, five and a third. 745 00:31:30,240 --> 00:31:32,120 Speaker 3: He goes to the pen, and you fully expect to 746 00:31:32,120 --> 00:31:36,800 Speaker 3: see incomes. You know, I don't know Caleb Killian, Keaton Win, whoever. 747 00:31:36,960 --> 00:31:41,600 Speaker 3: And all of a sudden, here comes Ryan frickin' Walker, 748 00:31:42,280 --> 00:31:46,040 Speaker 3: And I was like yo, And we had all sorts 749 00:31:46,040 --> 00:31:48,520 Speaker 3: of reactions. Number one, my first reaction was, well he's 750 00:31:48,520 --> 00:31:50,880 Speaker 3: no longer the closer. That was my first reaction, no longer. 751 00:31:51,600 --> 00:31:53,840 Speaker 3: And my second reaction was, I think this is the 752 00:31:53,920 --> 00:31:55,840 Speaker 3: right move. I don't think he should be the closer. 753 00:31:56,080 --> 00:31:57,520 Speaker 3: And then my third reaction was, well. 754 00:31:57,400 --> 00:31:59,320 Speaker 2: Who's the closer to that, who's gonna close off the 755 00:31:59,320 --> 00:31:59,800 Speaker 2: game tonight? 756 00:32:00,200 --> 00:32:03,160 Speaker 3: And then fourth, as Curly mentioned this morning, is closer 757 00:32:03,160 --> 00:32:04,160 Speaker 3: by committee the answer? 758 00:32:04,200 --> 00:32:07,800 Speaker 2: And is that a good answer? Generally? No, historically has 759 00:32:07,800 --> 00:32:08,719 Speaker 2: not been a good answer. 760 00:32:09,040 --> 00:32:12,280 Speaker 3: But Tony the addressed it and he said they had 761 00:32:12,320 --> 00:32:14,960 Speaker 3: their ideas as to why they brought in Ryan Walker 762 00:32:15,040 --> 00:32:15,720 Speaker 3: in the sixth inning. 763 00:32:15,920 --> 00:32:18,120 Speaker 8: We haven't seen Walker in that fifth sixth range a 764 00:32:18,120 --> 00:32:19,400 Speaker 8: whole lot in the last couple of years. 765 00:32:19,400 --> 00:32:21,120 Speaker 2: Did you go through some of the thinking there? 766 00:32:21,440 --> 00:32:27,000 Speaker 8: Yeah, we thought we were, you know, Robbie. Robbie's got 767 00:32:27,320 --> 00:32:29,680 Speaker 8: kind of the same He's the left handed version of Webby. 768 00:32:31,120 --> 00:32:33,880 Speaker 8: To be fair, though pitchcount got really high, a couple 769 00:32:33,960 --> 00:32:37,040 Speaker 8: guys took really good swings on them. We took a lead. 770 00:32:37,720 --> 00:32:40,120 Speaker 8: We kind of saw the sixth inning as a potential 771 00:32:40,680 --> 00:32:44,000 Speaker 8: big moment in the game, and earlier in the meetings 772 00:32:44,480 --> 00:32:46,520 Speaker 8: we talked about we were blessed to have pretty much 773 00:32:46,520 --> 00:32:48,840 Speaker 8: a fresh bullpen. Keillyan was a guy who was going 774 00:32:48,920 --> 00:32:52,080 Speaker 8: to be drastic for him to pitch for us. But 775 00:32:52,160 --> 00:32:55,560 Speaker 8: we talked about the difference and looks from Robbie to 776 00:32:55,680 --> 00:32:59,680 Speaker 8: Walk and you know, so often the other team. Again, 777 00:32:59,720 --> 00:33:02,520 Speaker 8: it could be any level gets excited when you take 778 00:33:02,560 --> 00:33:05,360 Speaker 8: a really strong pitch starting pitcher out and you're relieved 779 00:33:05,400 --> 00:33:07,760 Speaker 8: that he's out of pitches to get out of the game, 780 00:33:08,160 --> 00:33:11,480 Speaker 8: and it's almost like it's, you know, a greater challenge 781 00:33:11,480 --> 00:33:14,120 Speaker 8: for the next guy. So we liked a different look, 782 00:33:14,160 --> 00:33:16,400 Speaker 8: and we like the fact that it potentially was a 783 00:33:16,440 --> 00:33:21,400 Speaker 8: save type situation because to me, those happen, you know, 784 00:33:21,920 --> 00:33:25,320 Speaker 8: six through through the ninth inning are all opportunities for that. 785 00:33:25,560 --> 00:33:28,440 Speaker 8: But Robbie was pretty good there at the end, really good. 786 00:33:29,160 --> 00:33:30,880 Speaker 8: And I don't think he was happy with me either 787 00:33:30,920 --> 00:33:33,080 Speaker 8: that I went out there, but I think he's happy 788 00:33:33,160 --> 00:33:35,360 Speaker 8: right now. At least he looked at in the locker room. 789 00:33:35,920 --> 00:33:39,000 Speaker 3: Okay, well, Robbie Ray should I mean, he was at 790 00:33:39,040 --> 00:33:40,520 Speaker 3: ninety six pitches at April third. 791 00:33:40,720 --> 00:33:42,520 Speaker 2: I get it, Robbie raising competitor. He doesn't want to 792 00:33:42,520 --> 00:33:42,840 Speaker 2: come out. 793 00:33:43,160 --> 00:33:45,440 Speaker 3: But Marcus, your reaction you were at the park, I 794 00:33:45,680 --> 00:33:47,080 Speaker 3: mean my first reaction was like, whoa. 795 00:33:47,320 --> 00:33:50,000 Speaker 2: It was definitely worthy of eyes emoji on Twitter. 796 00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:53,160 Speaker 4: Yeah, I was definitely a little surprised to see Ryan 797 00:33:53,240 --> 00:33:55,040 Speaker 4: Walker walk through those gates. 798 00:33:55,040 --> 00:33:56,760 Speaker 2: I'm like, hmm, you're going with him? 799 00:33:56,760 --> 00:33:58,480 Speaker 4: In the sixth inning, So I was like, hm, is 800 00:33:58,520 --> 00:34:01,080 Speaker 4: this an overreaction to what we saw on Monday night 801 00:34:01,120 --> 00:34:03,280 Speaker 4: in San Diego, where yes, he gave up a home 802 00:34:03,320 --> 00:34:05,160 Speaker 4: run to Jackson Merrow, but he was still able to 803 00:34:05,160 --> 00:34:07,640 Speaker 4: get the save. I had the same questions of how 804 00:34:07,680 --> 00:34:09,640 Speaker 4: the bullpen was going to play out. I will say 805 00:34:09,760 --> 00:34:11,640 Speaker 4: I ended the game out in the bleachers. So I 806 00:34:11,680 --> 00:34:13,920 Speaker 4: did see Eric Miller getting loose in the eighth and 807 00:34:14,040 --> 00:34:15,640 Speaker 4: in the ninth inning in case he got to a 808 00:34:15,680 --> 00:34:18,560 Speaker 4: safe situation. But I don't mind this at all because 809 00:34:18,840 --> 00:34:22,359 Speaker 4: Tony was pretty reluctant to even name a closer. In fact, 810 00:34:22,400 --> 00:34:26,319 Speaker 4: Marcus did, and he really never to put pen in 811 00:34:26,320 --> 00:34:28,840 Speaker 4: the paper. He did not, And so I don't mind 812 00:34:28,880 --> 00:34:31,400 Speaker 4: this usage of Ryan Walker, especially last night, because it 813 00:34:31,480 --> 00:34:33,560 Speaker 4: was a nice pocket of right handed hitters, Like I 814 00:34:33,640 --> 00:34:36,080 Speaker 4: don't want to see Ryan Walker square off against Frankie 815 00:34:36,120 --> 00:34:38,160 Speaker 4: Lindor and Wan Soto and some of those lefty bats 816 00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:39,239 Speaker 4: at the top of the order. So it was a 817 00:34:39,320 --> 00:34:41,480 Speaker 4: nice little pockey for him to get in on some 818 00:34:41,560 --> 00:34:42,640 Speaker 4: righty righty match. 819 00:34:42,520 --> 00:34:43,760 Speaker 2: Luis Robert mark Vante. 820 00:34:44,000 --> 00:34:47,560 Speaker 4: And that's kind of how we saw Ryan Walker be 821 00:34:47,800 --> 00:34:50,080 Speaker 4: used when he first broke into the Bigs. He was 822 00:34:50,160 --> 00:34:52,680 Speaker 4: kind of your strikeout, high leverage situation guy that you 823 00:34:52,719 --> 00:34:54,840 Speaker 4: could throw in those situations. So I didn't mind the 824 00:34:54,840 --> 00:34:57,560 Speaker 4: strategy yesterday. But of course this is gonna be a 825 00:34:57,560 --> 00:34:59,040 Speaker 4: story we followed all season. 826 00:34:59,280 --> 00:35:01,799 Speaker 3: I just don't don't think Ryan Walker is like the 827 00:35:02,000 --> 00:35:03,040 Speaker 3: put In incloser. 828 00:35:03,239 --> 00:35:05,120 Speaker 2: I just don't think he is.

But the conversation you're gonna hear happened before 847 00:35:57,160 --> 00:35:58,920 Speaker 3: he won his third out of four. It's after they 848 00:35:58,920 --> 00:36:00,799 Speaker 3: got back from San Diego and he was jolted awake 849 00:36:00,800 --> 00:36:03,400 Speaker 3: by an earthquake on Thursday morning. But for the early crowd, 850 00:36:03,400 --> 00:36:06,239 Speaker 3: you guys get to hear it. So Marcus Murph, we 851 00:36:06,280 --> 00:36:08,359 Speaker 3: did it. We welcomed him to the UMA guest line 852 00:36:08,360 --> 00:36:10,959 Speaker 3: and said, good morning, Tony V. For your once every 853 00:36:11,000 --> 00:36:12,719 Speaker 3: four week hits and how you doing. 854 00:36:13,360 --> 00:36:16,400 Speaker 5: Good morning, doing pretty well, Glad to be back in 855 00:36:16,440 --> 00:36:20,920 Speaker 5: San Francisco. Uh, definitely got to interrupt the night of sleep. 856 00:36:21,040 --> 00:36:22,239 Speaker 5: I think we had an earthquake. 857 00:36:22,840 --> 00:36:25,720 Speaker 2: We did, you did. Let's let's get the Tony V story. 858 00:36:25,760 --> 00:36:27,759 Speaker 2: Your first San Francisco earthquake? How'd it go? 859 00:36:29,880 --> 00:36:32,800 Speaker 5: I thought someone was moving me in my bed U 860 00:36:33,160 --> 00:36:36,600 Speaker 5: So that was disturbing. I'm the only one that lives here. Uh, 861 00:36:36,760 --> 00:36:41,040 Speaker 5: but yeah, I woke up and Uh, for whatever reason, 862 00:36:41,080 --> 00:36:43,279 Speaker 5: my brain clicked on right away that that's what had 863 00:36:43,280 --> 00:36:45,640 Speaker 5: to have happened. So I was on my phone for 864 00:36:45,640 --> 00:36:47,200 Speaker 5: about an hour in the middle of the night, and 865 00:36:47,600 --> 00:36:51,000 Speaker 5: probably like a lot of Giants fans, started looking online 866 00:36:51,000 --> 00:36:53,719 Speaker 5: and trying to figure out how we can, you know, 867 00:36:53,800 --> 00:36:56,319 Speaker 5: get the five hundred and then eventually get over that mark. 868 00:36:56,560 --> 00:36:58,879 Speaker 2: Oh that's awesome. I love it. The first earthquake. It's 869 00:36:58,880 --> 00:37:01,520 Speaker 2: perfect Mother Nature, welcome you back. So hey, listen. 870 00:37:01,600 --> 00:37:03,480 Speaker 3: But we have so much to talk about, but we 871 00:37:03,520 --> 00:37:05,960 Speaker 3: wanted to start with the biggest deal, and that is 872 00:37:06,040 --> 00:37:09,440 Speaker 3: it happened Monday night in San Diego, your first major 873 00:37:09,520 --> 00:37:11,560 Speaker 3: league win. Now, Tony, I think we were pretty certain 874 00:37:11,560 --> 00:37:13,120 Speaker 3: you were gonna get a major league. 875 00:37:12,880 --> 00:37:15,239 Speaker 2: Win, right, but it's like graduating from high school. 876 00:37:15,280 --> 00:37:17,560 Speaker 3: We know it's gonna happen. It's still a great occasion, right, 877 00:37:17,640 --> 00:37:20,719 Speaker 3: So we wanted to say that's a great moment. It 878 00:37:20,800 --> 00:37:22,360 Speaker 3: was really cool to see it. It was great to 879 00:37:22,360 --> 00:37:23,520 Speaker 3: see everybody. 880 00:37:23,560 --> 00:37:24,560 Speaker 2: Hugging you and all that. 881 00:37:24,640 --> 00:37:26,920 Speaker 3: And I know there's many, many more to come, but 882 00:37:26,960 --> 00:37:29,520 Speaker 3: you're now in the books with John McGraw and Leoda 883 00:37:29,600 --> 00:37:32,680 Speaker 3: Roacher and Bruce Bochi and Dusty Baker, and just a 884 00:37:32,760 --> 00:37:34,400 Speaker 3: chance to reflect on that. I know you're in the 885 00:37:34,400 --> 00:37:36,400 Speaker 3: mode of trying to beat the Mets tonight. I get that, 886 00:37:36,640 --> 00:37:38,800 Speaker 3: but can you give us a little moment of reflection 887 00:37:39,000 --> 00:37:41,640 Speaker 3: and maybe something special that happened after the game? 888 00:37:43,440 --> 00:37:46,359 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean the win was a lot better than 889 00:37:46,400 --> 00:37:52,200 Speaker 5: the locker room effort afterwards. I think the guys that 890 00:37:52,239 --> 00:37:54,319 Speaker 5: there was a lot of love felt, but there was 891 00:37:54,360 --> 00:37:59,080 Speaker 5: also a lot of torture felt. So I guess it's 892 00:37:59,160 --> 00:38:02,239 Speaker 5: a little bit of a rookie hazing that goes on 893 00:38:03,239 --> 00:38:05,880 Speaker 5: after your first win. The good thing was we were 894 00:38:05,880 --> 00:38:08,560 Speaker 5: able to win a second game, and I wasn't the 895 00:38:08,560 --> 00:38:12,440 Speaker 5: only coach that was tormented a little bit with the rituals. 896 00:38:12,440 --> 00:38:15,719 Speaker 5: So that was fun to actually watch on Night two 897 00:38:15,800 --> 00:38:18,319 Speaker 5: and actually enjoy the second win. But reflecting on the 898 00:38:18,320 --> 00:38:20,920 Speaker 5: first one, it was, to be honest with you, it 899 00:38:20,960 --> 00:38:24,520 Speaker 5: was great. You know, if you were gonna win one 900 00:38:24,520 --> 00:38:26,880 Speaker 5: game against the Yankees or one game against the Padres, 901 00:38:27,080 --> 00:38:31,160 Speaker 5: you would rather win, you know, against the divisional opponent. 902 00:38:31,239 --> 00:38:34,080 Speaker 5: At the same time, it was a little bittersweet. There 903 00:38:34,120 --> 00:38:37,800 Speaker 5: was so much build up to that first week and 904 00:38:38,239 --> 00:38:41,000 Speaker 5: opening day. Really it was months and months of build up, 905 00:38:41,080 --> 00:38:44,400 Speaker 5: and man, the fanfare of the first two games and 906 00:38:44,480 --> 00:38:47,600 Speaker 5: really it bled into the third game. Were phenomenal, and 907 00:38:48,640 --> 00:38:50,480 Speaker 5: you know, to not get it done at home was 908 00:38:50,520 --> 00:38:53,600 Speaker 5: a little frustrating, but yeah, glad to get the first 909 00:38:53,600 --> 00:38:56,319 Speaker 5: one because you guys said you knew the first one 910 00:38:56,440 --> 00:38:59,600 Speaker 5: was gonna come at some point, but we're all human. 911 00:38:59,640 --> 00:39:03,040 Speaker 5: I got to mint, I didn't know, you're maybe not 912 00:39:03,680 --> 00:39:07,000 Speaker 5: until until it happened, just to be just to be fair. 913 00:39:07,120 --> 00:39:10,919 Speaker 5: But now our team is starting to play with some personality, 914 00:39:11,440 --> 00:39:15,000 Speaker 5: and I think it's a completely different vibe. Uh, since 915 00:39:15,040 --> 00:39:16,920 Speaker 5: we were all able to kind of get that monkey 916 00:39:16,920 --> 00:39:17,359 Speaker 5: off the back. 917 00:39:17,719 --> 00:39:19,640 Speaker 4: Yeah, well, Tony, we saw you win a lot of 918 00:39:19,760 --> 00:39:22,640 Speaker 4: games at the collegiate level with Tennessee obviously, but for 919 00:39:22,680 --> 00:39:24,080 Speaker 4: you to get this milestone win. 920 00:39:24,200 --> 00:39:26,160 Speaker 2: Did this win feel different at all? 921 00:39:26,160 --> 00:39:27,960 Speaker 4: For you doing it at the major league level and 922 00:39:28,040 --> 00:39:29,600 Speaker 4: it was something that you were glad to kind of 923 00:39:29,600 --> 00:39:32,880 Speaker 4: get off your shoulders and move on from. 924 00:39:33,040 --> 00:39:35,239 Speaker 5: Yeah, it was. It was definitely the latter. And then 925 00:39:35,680 --> 00:39:39,879 Speaker 5: you know, the first one was you know, you get 926 00:39:39,880 --> 00:39:42,120 Speaker 5: in a zero to three hole and we know what 927 00:39:42,200 --> 00:39:45,080 Speaker 5: last year's record was. It was, you know, even steven 928 00:39:45,680 --> 00:39:48,759 Speaker 5: And that's the mark that I think everyone has targeted. 929 00:39:48,920 --> 00:39:51,359 Speaker 5: I know, Giants fans may have other numbers in their 930 00:39:51,400 --> 00:39:54,080 Speaker 5: head and Uh, I'd like to feel I got as 931 00:39:54,160 --> 00:39:56,600 Speaker 5: high as standards as anybody. But you get in that 932 00:39:56,640 --> 00:39:59,480 Speaker 5: hole and your first thought is, how do we, you know, 933 00:39:59,760 --> 00:40:03,040 Speaker 5: get three wins as quickly as possible so we're at 934 00:40:03,120 --> 00:40:05,200 Speaker 5: least at a mark that we want to be. And 935 00:40:05,280 --> 00:40:07,440 Speaker 5: I get it it is early in the season, although 936 00:40:07,480 --> 00:40:10,719 Speaker 5: I also get you know, the first ten games are 937 00:40:10,760 --> 00:40:14,080 Speaker 5: always overreacted, is what John Smoltz's quote was to me, 938 00:40:14,320 --> 00:40:18,200 Speaker 5: And I said, well, I'm one of those overreactors. We 939 00:40:18,520 --> 00:40:21,000 Speaker 5: want to win as quickly as possible and kind of 940 00:40:21,000 --> 00:40:25,160 Speaker 5: get this train rolling. Yeah. It was a great feeling 941 00:40:25,239 --> 00:40:28,920 Speaker 5: to more than anything, to see what we know we 942 00:40:29,040 --> 00:40:31,799 Speaker 5: have in that locker room kind of come together and 943 00:40:31,920 --> 00:40:35,520 Speaker 5: now we do have some factual data we can point to. 944 00:40:35,719 --> 00:40:39,359 Speaker 5: Is we really feel confident in this starting group. I 945 00:40:39,400 --> 00:40:41,960 Speaker 5: know a couple of these guys are capable of the 946 00:40:42,040 --> 00:40:44,719 Speaker 5: night inning shut out, but what we really see is 947 00:40:44,760 --> 00:40:48,040 Speaker 5: just a group that's stable and is always going to 948 00:40:48,120 --> 00:40:50,279 Speaker 5: compete and can keep us in the game at the 949 00:40:50,360 --> 00:40:51,799 Speaker 5: end of the day. To me, that's all you can 950 00:40:51,840 --> 00:40:53,759 Speaker 5: ask your starting pitcher to do when they get as 951 00:40:53,760 --> 00:40:57,120 Speaker 5: many starts as they do. The bullpen was questioned by many, 952 00:40:58,080 --> 00:41:00,359 Speaker 5: including us to be honest with you. So we're kind 953 00:41:00,360 --> 00:41:02,360 Speaker 5: of on a mission to actually make that a strength 954 00:41:02,840 --> 00:41:06,600 Speaker 5: as opposed to a weakness. Those guys have really responded well, 955 00:41:06,920 --> 00:41:09,600 Speaker 5: and then hitting is going to come and go. Defense, 956 00:41:09,640 --> 00:41:11,440 Speaker 5: of course, needs to be stable. We want to be 957 00:41:11,480 --> 00:41:15,279 Speaker 5: aggressive on the basis and we've kind of seen all 958 00:41:15,320 --> 00:41:17,680 Speaker 5: those attributes. But the main thing with that position group 959 00:41:17,719 --> 00:41:21,120 Speaker 5: I wanted to continue to ramble on about was I 960 00:41:21,160 --> 00:41:23,759 Speaker 5: think there's a lot of personality there. There's leadership. The 961 00:41:23,840 --> 00:41:27,279 Speaker 5: guys really do have a camaraderie already early in the year. 962 00:41:28,000 --> 00:41:30,560 Speaker 5: Maybe it's because we have some holdovers from last year, 963 00:41:31,600 --> 00:41:35,239 Speaker 5: but as that group continues to relax and continues to 964 00:41:35,320 --> 00:41:39,680 Speaker 5: have some personality, whether it's having fun or getting on 965 00:41:39,719 --> 00:41:44,120 Speaker 5: each other and being intense, I think it's a winning group. 966 00:41:44,840 --> 00:41:46,799 Speaker 3: By the way, we got ten million things to ask 967 00:41:46,840 --> 00:41:49,320 Speaker 3: you in this brief time we have, but you mentioned 968 00:41:50,400 --> 00:41:53,200 Speaker 3: the style and the energy and coming together. The one 969 00:41:53,200 --> 00:41:54,680 Speaker 3: thing that jumped out of me. This is gonna seems 970 00:41:54,680 --> 00:41:58,360 Speaker 3: really random. Luisa Rises delayed steel against the Yankees. I 971 00:41:58,480 --> 00:42:01,000 Speaker 3: freaking loved that, and I was wondering if that was 972 00:42:01,080 --> 00:42:03,480 Speaker 3: my first sign of Tony v Baseball, or was that 973 00:42:03,560 --> 00:42:05,719 Speaker 3: just something he did entirely on his own, or was 974 00:42:05,719 --> 00:42:06,680 Speaker 3: it something you guys. 975 00:42:06,480 --> 00:42:11,520 Speaker 2: Talked about in spring training? Just a random question there. 976 00:42:11,719 --> 00:42:15,239 Speaker 5: It's it's something we talked about and something we do 977 00:42:15,360 --> 00:42:17,600 Speaker 5: want to be aggressive on the basis I mean, I 978 00:42:17,640 --> 00:42:21,280 Speaker 5: got asked about, you know, I believe from Korean media 979 00:42:21,480 --> 00:42:25,040 Speaker 5: was with Jung Hu being too aggressive. Maybe you know 980 00:42:25,120 --> 00:42:27,200 Speaker 5: in San Diego he makes a third out at third, 981 00:42:27,320 --> 00:42:29,840 Speaker 5: but the Padres made a mistake, and we want to 982 00:42:29,840 --> 00:42:33,120 Speaker 5: try and capitalize on other people's mistakes. And I think 983 00:42:33,320 --> 00:42:35,440 Speaker 5: the only way you find out what is being too 984 00:42:35,480 --> 00:42:39,080 Speaker 5: aggressive is to tow that line or go over that line, 985 00:42:39,080 --> 00:42:41,120 Speaker 5: and then maybe you learn lessons and you pull back 986 00:42:41,160 --> 00:42:45,840 Speaker 5: a little bit. So and I appreciate the phrase Tony v. Baseball, 987 00:42:45,840 --> 00:42:49,360 Speaker 5: But while myself and then the other coaches need to 988 00:42:49,360 --> 00:42:52,080 Speaker 5: be leaders, Ultimately, the guys on the field are going 989 00:42:52,160 --> 00:42:54,240 Speaker 5: to play, and we just want them to play free 990 00:42:55,160 --> 00:42:58,080 Speaker 5: and play aggressive. So those are things we've talked about too. 991 00:42:58,480 --> 00:43:00,600 Speaker 5: And then you add in the extra mix of just 992 00:43:00,680 --> 00:43:03,680 Speaker 5: some of the things Leise did this weekend or you 993 00:43:03,680 --> 00:43:07,879 Speaker 5: know against San Diego in particular, he's got a very 994 00:43:07,960 --> 00:43:10,560 Speaker 5: unique style. The game comes slow to him. He's having 995 00:43:10,600 --> 00:43:14,200 Speaker 5: fun out there, and yet he's really intense. He's a 996 00:43:14,239 --> 00:43:18,680 Speaker 5: special guy to have around and I'm hoping some of 997 00:43:18,719 --> 00:43:20,960 Speaker 5: what he's got going on wears off on the other 998 00:43:21,040 --> 00:43:24,920 Speaker 5: guys too, because it's a really unique deal just getting 999 00:43:24,960 --> 00:43:26,200 Speaker 5: to watch him play every night. 1000 00:43:26,480 --> 00:43:29,000 Speaker 4: Yeah, I'd say Luisa Rice has maybe gone off to 1001 00:43:29,000 --> 00:43:30,719 Speaker 4: the best start on the entire team. What he's doing 1002 00:43:30,760 --> 00:43:32,200 Speaker 4: on the base pass, what he's doing with the bat, 1003 00:43:32,239 --> 00:43:33,680 Speaker 4: and even what he's doing defensively. 1004 00:43:33,760 --> 00:43:34,920 Speaker 2: But Tony, we've also. 1005 00:43:34,800 --> 00:43:36,799 Speaker 4: Seen you move him around in the lineup, whether it's 1006 00:43:36,800 --> 00:43:38,879 Speaker 4: the lead off spot, the three hole, or the full hole. 1007 00:43:38,960 --> 00:43:41,200 Speaker 4: So talk to us about that process. What goes into 1008 00:43:41,200 --> 00:43:44,640 Speaker 4: those decisions. What is the thought process when you are drawing. 1009 00:43:44,480 --> 00:43:45,160 Speaker 2: Up these lineups? 1010 00:43:46,880 --> 00:43:50,279 Speaker 5: Yeah? For me, you know, I don't know where my 1011 00:43:50,480 --> 00:43:53,120 Speaker 5: opinion matches up with others because I think there's a 1012 00:43:53,160 --> 00:43:57,960 Speaker 5: lot of varying opinions that you can dive into. I've 1013 00:43:58,000 --> 00:44:00,160 Speaker 5: said it a million times. I like healthy debate. It's 1014 00:44:00,200 --> 00:44:03,759 Speaker 5: among the coaches. So I think, you know, drawing on 1015 00:44:03,800 --> 00:44:07,280 Speaker 5: everyone's opinion, and you got a unique deal with guys 1016 00:44:07,320 --> 00:44:10,759 Speaker 5: like Buster, you know, and then I feel like I'm 1017 00:44:10,800 --> 00:44:14,680 Speaker 5: close with the other upper management guys just just asking 1018 00:44:14,680 --> 00:44:17,240 Speaker 5: them their opinion, even though they've given us complete freedom 1019 00:44:17,280 --> 00:44:19,799 Speaker 5: to do what we think we need to do. All 1020 00:44:19,840 --> 00:44:23,200 Speaker 5: the coaches I like at least knowing where the players 1021 00:44:23,320 --> 00:44:25,560 Speaker 5: like to be. That doesn't mean they're necessarily going to 1022 00:44:25,600 --> 00:44:29,520 Speaker 5: be there. And then how guys are swinging at a 1023 00:44:29,520 --> 00:44:32,279 Speaker 5: particular time. We're early in the season, so it's a 1024 00:44:32,280 --> 00:44:34,719 Speaker 5: little tough to judge that part. And then you got 1025 00:44:34,719 --> 00:44:38,120 Speaker 5: the matchups too, And then some of it is just 1026 00:44:38,200 --> 00:44:42,480 Speaker 5: not hey, this is the best guy in this particular spot. 1027 00:44:42,880 --> 00:44:46,439 Speaker 5: It's just putting together the whole nine guys. And where 1028 00:44:46,440 --> 00:44:49,360 Speaker 5: we got good at Tennessee, which is a completely different level, 1029 00:44:50,040 --> 00:44:52,319 Speaker 5: is where all nine guys were a pain in the 1030 00:44:52,320 --> 00:44:56,439 Speaker 5: butt for the other staff, and you know, you don't 1031 00:44:56,480 --> 00:44:59,200 Speaker 5: really know where those RBI situations are going to come 1032 00:44:59,520 --> 00:45:02,640 Speaker 5: the other It was seven, eight, and nine that did 1033 00:45:02,680 --> 00:45:05,279 Speaker 5: a lot of the damage and set the table, and 1034 00:45:05,960 --> 00:45:08,719 Speaker 5: Willie ended up coming up in some RBI situations even 1035 00:45:08,719 --> 00:45:11,920 Speaker 5: though he was in the leadoff spot. So if I 1036 00:45:12,000 --> 00:45:15,560 Speaker 5: was to say one big thing about it is sometimes 1037 00:45:15,800 --> 00:45:18,080 Speaker 5: it comes up as crucial, sometimes it comes up as 1038 00:45:18,120 --> 00:45:21,560 Speaker 5: overrated where guys are at. But what never comes up 1039 00:45:22,120 --> 00:45:26,040 Speaker 5: underrated or undervalued is meeting all nine guys when they 1040 00:45:26,040 --> 00:45:29,040 Speaker 5: do get their opportunity, no matter what situation it is, 1041 00:45:29,080 --> 00:45:32,080 Speaker 5: get the kleets and the dirt and compete for the Giants. 1042 00:45:32,520 --> 00:45:35,640 Speaker 5: And again, if nine guys do that, it's a pain 1043 00:45:35,719 --> 00:45:37,560 Speaker 5: in the butt to be a pitching coach. I've been 1044 00:45:37,600 --> 00:45:38,000 Speaker 5: that guy. 1045 00:45:38,200 --> 00:45:40,360 Speaker 3: Tony Battello is the voice you hear on our Giants 1046 00:45:40,360 --> 00:45:43,880 Speaker 3: executive show. We rotate Buster and Tony and Zach Manazzi 1047 00:45:43,920 --> 00:45:45,920 Speaker 3: and Larry Behar. So we appreciate bright and early the 1048 00:45:45,960 --> 00:45:48,120 Speaker 3: manager getting up and talking to these Giants fans out here. 1049 00:45:48,400 --> 00:45:50,400 Speaker 3: So we've done a lot of macro big picture stuff 1050 00:45:50,440 --> 00:45:52,000 Speaker 3: and the win and all that. Now we go micro 1051 00:45:52,560 --> 00:45:56,120 Speaker 3: first base. Casey Schmidt has played every game at first base. 1052 00:45:56,120 --> 00:45:58,200 Speaker 3: He's not a natural first basement. I think he came 1053 00:45:58,239 --> 00:46:00,360 Speaker 3: up as a shortstop and then a third basement. So 1054 00:46:00,440 --> 00:46:02,000 Speaker 3: we'd love to know, you know, when you and your 1055 00:46:02,000 --> 00:46:04,560 Speaker 3: coaches sit down and talk about the lineup, why have 1056 00:46:04,640 --> 00:46:08,480 Speaker 3: you played Casey at first every game? And is that 1057 00:46:08,560 --> 00:46:11,760 Speaker 3: going to change anytime soon given Dever's health. 1058 00:46:13,520 --> 00:46:17,680 Speaker 5: Yeah, I think you know. Raffi's closer. I don't think 1059 00:46:17,680 --> 00:46:21,040 Speaker 5: it's anything immediate. The one thing we've tried to do 1060 00:46:21,200 --> 00:46:23,759 Speaker 5: is get other guys caught up to being able to 1061 00:46:23,760 --> 00:46:26,920 Speaker 5: play at that position, just to kind of lengthen the 1062 00:46:26,920 --> 00:46:30,000 Speaker 5: amount of options we have at this point. You know, 1063 00:46:30,120 --> 00:46:33,719 Speaker 5: Casey's shown the best defense more than anything, and it 1064 00:46:33,800 --> 00:46:37,720 Speaker 5: was unique. On day one. We're looking ahead like Giants fans, 1065 00:46:38,080 --> 00:46:41,000 Speaker 5: and you know the lineup all along was going to 1066 00:46:41,080 --> 00:46:43,719 Speaker 5: be Casey and Raffie in there. So it just kind 1067 00:46:43,719 --> 00:46:47,359 Speaker 5: of became a switch out as a couple of weeks out, 1068 00:46:47,480 --> 00:46:51,799 Speaker 5: you know, Raffi had some handstring issues. So yeah, right now, 1069 00:46:51,840 --> 00:46:54,920 Speaker 5: I mean he's he's capable of doing damage with the 1070 00:46:54,960 --> 00:46:57,480 Speaker 5: bat like a lot of our hitters. He's capable of 1071 00:46:57,719 --> 00:47:00,320 Speaker 5: flat out doing better than he's done so far, small 1072 00:47:00,360 --> 00:47:03,919 Speaker 5: sample size, but defensively he's shown the best over there. 1073 00:47:04,360 --> 00:47:09,319 Speaker 5: Yesterday was unique with you know, you wonder, because I've 1074 00:47:09,320 --> 00:47:13,080 Speaker 5: been the baseball player before, where one play effects confidence 1075 00:47:13,120 --> 00:47:17,279 Speaker 5: of another. You wonder if the first the first one 1076 00:47:17,360 --> 00:47:19,440 Speaker 5: is really tricky. You got to put yourself in the 1077 00:47:19,480 --> 00:47:23,080 Speaker 5: guy's shoes of you know, Chap, He's got to get 1078 00:47:23,160 --> 00:47:25,480 Speaker 5: rid of it because Machado can run pretty good and 1079 00:47:25,520 --> 00:47:27,960 Speaker 5: it was a tricky play, but then you got the 1080 00:47:28,000 --> 00:47:30,560 Speaker 5: biggest guy on the Padres bearing down on you in 1081 00:47:30,600 --> 00:47:33,319 Speaker 5: the ball meeting. At the same time, all of us 1082 00:47:33,360 --> 00:47:35,919 Speaker 5: would like to play made. It wasn't made. You move 1083 00:47:36,000 --> 00:47:38,239 Speaker 5: on and we're still in a position to win the game. 1084 00:47:38,920 --> 00:47:43,080 Speaker 5: I think twice now, Casey is guilty of what every 1085 00:47:43,200 --> 00:47:48,000 Speaker 5: first basement is. So this is where my experience pays off. 1086 00:47:48,360 --> 00:47:50,439 Speaker 5: In college. You got young guys, a lot of guys 1087 00:47:50,480 --> 00:47:52,880 Speaker 5: are converting to that spot, and then a lot of 1088 00:47:52,920 --> 00:47:56,440 Speaker 5: guys just haven't been coached at that spot. Stretching early 1089 00:47:56,680 --> 00:47:59,759 Speaker 5: is the most common problem over at first base, and 1090 00:47:59,800 --> 00:48:03,319 Speaker 5: it's it's really difficult to not do. You need experience, 1091 00:48:03,600 --> 00:48:06,760 Speaker 5: and I think he's been guilty of that a couple times, 1092 00:48:06,800 --> 00:48:11,840 Speaker 5: but not guilty of again to me competing because nobody 1093 00:48:11,840 --> 00:48:14,920 Speaker 5: felt worse after the game yesterday. And yeah, there are 1094 00:48:14,960 --> 00:48:17,440 Speaker 5: two plays that had a big impact, but there are 1095 00:48:17,440 --> 00:48:18,880 Speaker 5: a lot of other plays that went on in that 1096 00:48:18,920 --> 00:48:19,399 Speaker 5: game too. 1097 00:48:20,160 --> 00:48:22,200 Speaker 4: Just to follow up on Raphael Devers, because we have 1098 00:48:22,239 --> 00:48:23,719 Speaker 4: not seen him in the field yet, we know he 1099 00:48:23,840 --> 00:48:26,080 Speaker 4: is dealing with some hamstring tightness. We saw him bust 1100 00:48:26,080 --> 00:48:28,000 Speaker 4: down the line the other day pretty damn hard. So 1101 00:48:28,120 --> 00:48:30,040 Speaker 4: do you guys have a timeline of when you do 1102 00:48:30,080 --> 00:48:31,200 Speaker 4: want to see him back in the field. 1103 00:48:32,680 --> 00:48:36,279 Speaker 5: Yeah, and he did that, you know, against our advisement, 1104 00:48:36,400 --> 00:48:39,200 Speaker 5: mainly mine. I got made fun of for yelling at 1105 00:48:39,280 --> 00:48:41,920 Speaker 5: him in spring training to take it to kind of 1106 00:48:41,920 --> 00:48:44,320 Speaker 5: cool it on the basins a little bit. But he 1107 00:48:44,440 --> 00:48:46,919 Speaker 5: was hauling but you know, down the line a couple 1108 00:48:47,000 --> 00:48:49,719 Speaker 5: different times in spring training, once almost beaten out an 1109 00:48:49,719 --> 00:48:53,520 Speaker 5: infield hit. And so it's kind of been the theme 1110 00:48:53,600 --> 00:48:56,799 Speaker 5: that we already know of. He feels really comfortable in 1111 00:48:56,880 --> 00:49:00,760 Speaker 5: a straight line, but when you're getting into a position 1112 00:49:01,120 --> 00:49:04,239 Speaker 5: or you know you're you're potentially stretching real far, but 1113 00:49:04,280 --> 00:49:07,000 Speaker 5: even just a little bit is where his discomfort is. 1114 00:49:07,560 --> 00:49:11,200 Speaker 5: So that's where everybody's at right now. Is all right, 1115 00:49:11,640 --> 00:49:13,760 Speaker 5: we have one hundred and sixty two games to play. 1116 00:49:13,920 --> 00:49:16,080 Speaker 5: How deep in do we go before we're pushing it? 1117 00:49:16,120 --> 00:49:19,160 Speaker 5: Because right now I think everybody agrees we'd be pushing 1118 00:49:19,200 --> 00:49:22,120 Speaker 5: it a little bit. And then on the flip side 1119 00:49:22,160 --> 00:49:24,319 Speaker 5: of that, they're doing that, you know, ag Gress and 1120 00:49:24,320 --> 00:49:27,560 Speaker 5: his staff are doing everything possible with him to loosen 1121 00:49:27,600 --> 00:49:29,279 Speaker 5: that thing up and just get him feeling where he 1122 00:49:29,320 --> 00:49:33,480 Speaker 5: needs to be. And I you know, it'd be sugarcoating 1123 00:49:33,560 --> 00:49:35,759 Speaker 5: or however you want to phrase it. I'd be saying 1124 00:49:35,800 --> 00:49:38,600 Speaker 5: the wrong thing if I didn't say our best lineup 1125 00:49:38,760 --> 00:49:43,160 Speaker 5: is with those common eight guys that everybody knows out 1126 00:49:43,200 --> 00:49:45,759 Speaker 5: there in the field every day, and that of course 1127 00:49:45,840 --> 00:49:47,239 Speaker 5: needs rafi at first. 1128 00:49:47,120 --> 00:49:49,560 Speaker 3: A couple of quick ones follow. Louise Rise can play first. 1129 00:49:49,560 --> 00:49:51,480 Speaker 3: Have you guys thought about playing him there in the meantime? 1130 00:49:52,960 --> 00:49:56,120 Speaker 5: Yeah, I mean, that's it's potential, But it's also you know, 1131 00:49:56,440 --> 00:49:59,120 Speaker 5: a part of Louise's selection of where he was going 1132 00:49:59,200 --> 00:50:02,160 Speaker 5: to play, you know, of course, being a free agent, 1133 00:50:02,360 --> 00:50:05,800 Speaker 5: and he was, you know, determined to play second base, 1134 00:50:06,320 --> 00:50:09,200 Speaker 5: and I think that's something that we were determined to 1135 00:50:08,719 --> 00:50:12,040 Speaker 5: do too. Is kind of feel really good about that 1136 00:50:12,080 --> 00:50:16,879 Speaker 5: spot case and costs offer a tremendous amount of flexibility 1137 00:50:16,880 --> 00:50:19,680 Speaker 5: on the field that are talented guys, but we're looking 1138 00:50:19,719 --> 00:50:24,239 Speaker 5: for an everyday veteran second basement. And so that's where 1139 00:50:24,239 --> 00:50:27,120 Speaker 5: that combination kind of met in the middle. And I 1140 00:50:27,200 --> 00:50:30,440 Speaker 5: use that word determination on purpose, determined to play second 1141 00:50:30,960 --> 00:50:33,640 Speaker 5: That's one of the reasons you see him playing well 1142 00:50:33,640 --> 00:50:37,920 Speaker 5: defensively is the mindset met with the work ethic to 1143 00:50:38,000 --> 00:50:43,480 Speaker 5: play that position. So that's kind of the background behind. 1144 00:50:43,239 --> 00:50:44,760 Speaker 2: That got it, Got it Okay? 1145 00:50:44,800 --> 00:50:47,680 Speaker 3: So We just talked about your eight guys in the lineup, 1146 00:50:47,719 --> 00:50:49,400 Speaker 3: and one of the things that has stood out is 1147 00:50:49,840 --> 00:50:50,759 Speaker 3: my gosh at. 1148 00:50:50,719 --> 00:50:52,799 Speaker 2: Everyday lineup over and over and over again. And in 1149 00:50:52,800 --> 00:50:53,960 Speaker 2: many ways that's a positive. 1150 00:50:54,000 --> 00:50:56,560 Speaker 3: But in some ways you're thinking, okay, well, day game 1151 00:50:56,600 --> 00:50:58,120 Speaker 3: after a night game is a good time to get 1152 00:50:58,120 --> 00:51:00,720 Speaker 3: some guys off their feet. You guys strike out fourteen 1153 00:51:00,760 --> 00:51:03,520 Speaker 3: times yesterday. Maybe some guys were a little lethargic. Paveta 1154 00:51:03,560 --> 00:51:05,520 Speaker 3: has something to do with that, I know, But are 1155 00:51:05,560 --> 00:51:07,920 Speaker 3: you now beginning to learn like, Okay, here's how I 1156 00:51:07,960 --> 00:51:11,439 Speaker 3: got to start using my bench guys, or no, I'm 1157 00:51:11,440 --> 00:51:12,200 Speaker 3: going with my eight. 1158 00:51:13,960 --> 00:51:16,080 Speaker 5: A little bit. I mean, you know, I think at 1159 00:51:16,080 --> 00:51:19,879 Speaker 5: this point Jared, you know, had a lot to do 1160 00:51:19,960 --> 00:51:24,240 Speaker 5: with you know, tacking on to the lead the night before. 1161 00:51:25,200 --> 00:51:27,680 Speaker 5: His role has kind of been seen now by by 1162 00:51:27,800 --> 00:51:32,480 Speaker 5: fans is he's a weapon offensively on the basis. Doesn't 1163 00:51:32,520 --> 00:51:36,480 Speaker 5: mean he can't do other things. But he'll eventually get 1164 00:51:36,800 --> 00:51:39,080 Speaker 5: some time in the outfield. But you know, for the 1165 00:51:39,080 --> 00:51:41,520 Speaker 5: most part, those are our three guys. The left guye 1166 00:51:41,600 --> 00:51:45,319 Speaker 5: guys literally want to be out there every day. We're 1167 00:51:45,320 --> 00:51:47,200 Speaker 5: a little limited right now what we can do on 1168 00:51:47,239 --> 00:51:50,359 Speaker 5: the right side. I think Gerrar eventually will get his 1169 00:51:50,400 --> 00:51:53,799 Speaker 5: opportunity over at first base. He's worked hard to try 1170 00:51:53,840 --> 00:51:57,160 Speaker 5: and put some reps into that position. And then Patty 1171 00:51:57,200 --> 00:52:00,640 Speaker 5: and I met the night before in are O, were 1172 00:52:01,200 --> 00:52:07,120 Speaker 5: to you know, switch out and let Susac catch yesterday 1173 00:52:07,360 --> 00:52:09,960 Speaker 5: or to do it today today we see a left 1174 00:52:09,960 --> 00:52:13,960 Speaker 5: handed pitcher. It's after a road trip. Patty really felt 1175 00:52:13,960 --> 00:52:16,200 Speaker 5: like he had a good sense of the Padres lineup 1176 00:52:16,200 --> 00:52:19,040 Speaker 5: as far as pitch calling goes, and then also had 1177 00:52:19,080 --> 00:52:20,920 Speaker 5: started to catch a little bit of a rhythm at 1178 00:52:20,960 --> 00:52:25,480 Speaker 5: the plate. So after some discussions with everybody, we decided 1179 00:52:25,520 --> 00:52:29,920 Speaker 5: to go with Bailey today yesterday and Seusac today as 1180 00:52:29,920 --> 00:52:30,960 Speaker 5: opposed to flipping that. 1181 00:52:31,400 --> 00:52:34,000 Speaker 4: A few more minutes here with Giants manager Tony Vattello 1182 00:52:34,120 --> 00:52:36,560 Speaker 4: on the Giants Executive show on Camby Are sponsored by 1183 00:52:36,640 --> 00:52:39,800 Speaker 4: Redwood Credit Union for you for community for seventy five years, 1184 00:52:39,800 --> 00:52:42,040 Speaker 4: and Tony just kind of a big picture broad question 1185 00:52:42,400 --> 00:52:44,640 Speaker 4: on the ABS challenge system. Now, I know you guys 1186 00:52:44,680 --> 00:52:46,560 Speaker 4: got to work through it throughout spring training, but now 1187 00:52:46,600 --> 00:52:49,600 Speaker 4: six games into the regular season, what is the strategy 1188 00:52:49,640 --> 00:52:51,200 Speaker 4: there for you guys? Do you like it when guys 1189 00:52:51,239 --> 00:52:52,920 Speaker 4: are aggressive early? Do you want to save some of 1190 00:52:52,960 --> 00:52:55,320 Speaker 4: those challenges in your back pocket for later on in games. 1191 00:52:55,480 --> 00:52:56,960 Speaker 2: Would you rather have your. 1192 00:52:56,840 --> 00:52:59,320 Speaker 4: Pitchers and catchers have it in their back pocket versus 1193 00:52:59,360 --> 00:53:01,640 Speaker 4: the batters may be getting a extra opportunity. What's the 1194 00:53:01,640 --> 00:53:04,160 Speaker 4: philosophy and overall team strategy when it comes to using 1195 00:53:04,200 --> 00:53:05,280 Speaker 4: these abs challenges. 1196 00:53:06,960 --> 00:53:10,760 Speaker 5: Yeah, the conversations in spring training were really good because 1197 00:53:10,800 --> 00:53:15,000 Speaker 5: it was just pulling out outliers where hey, the next 1198 00:53:15,000 --> 00:53:18,239 Speaker 5: time this comes up, really try and do this, or 1199 00:53:18,320 --> 00:53:21,719 Speaker 5: let's not use it here. But we just wanted the 1200 00:53:21,760 --> 00:53:24,799 Speaker 5: guys to experiment with it and be aggressive. So going 1201 00:53:24,840 --> 00:53:27,400 Speaker 5: into the season, we were one of the highest rated 1202 00:53:27,400 --> 00:53:29,480 Speaker 5: teams and the guys had done a really good job. 1203 00:53:29,880 --> 00:53:32,759 Speaker 5: And obviously a big part of that was, you know, 1204 00:53:32,840 --> 00:53:35,839 Speaker 5: Patty Bailey's so good it kind of having a feel 1205 00:53:35,920 --> 00:53:38,279 Speaker 5: for that, not just the catcher, but a hitter. He 1206 00:53:38,360 --> 00:53:40,799 Speaker 5: had a lot of success. So there wasn't a lot 1207 00:53:40,840 --> 00:53:43,560 Speaker 5: that wanted to be changed. But one thing we've seen 1208 00:53:43,600 --> 00:53:45,439 Speaker 5: and kind of pointed out to the guys is they've 1209 00:53:45,440 --> 00:53:48,680 Speaker 5: been a little tentative with it. But I think a 1210 00:53:48,719 --> 00:53:52,719 Speaker 5: part of that is just, you know, understanding when you're 1211 00:53:52,760 --> 00:53:56,040 Speaker 5: out of them, things change, and I'll let you guys 1212 00:53:56,040 --> 00:53:59,359 Speaker 5: talk about that on air because there's there's a lot 1213 00:53:59,400 --> 00:54:02,000 Speaker 5: to change. Some of it you can control, some of 1214 00:54:02,040 --> 00:54:05,399 Speaker 5: it you can't. And then you know, eighth and ninth inning, 1215 00:54:05,440 --> 00:54:07,359 Speaker 5: you'd like to have one in your back pocket, in 1216 00:54:07,360 --> 00:54:11,040 Speaker 5: particular on defense or if you're you know, up at 1217 00:54:11,040 --> 00:54:13,120 Speaker 5: the plate with the game on the line, you know 1218 00:54:13,200 --> 00:54:17,240 Speaker 5: that that also would would fall into that category. If anything, 1219 00:54:17,400 --> 00:54:19,800 Speaker 5: I think guys have been a little hesitant, and it's 1220 00:54:20,080 --> 00:54:24,520 Speaker 5: no fault of them not considering it. I think everybody's 1221 00:54:24,520 --> 00:54:27,680 Speaker 5: trying to keep the team in mind. And it's interesting. 1222 00:54:27,719 --> 00:54:32,040 Speaker 5: I don't like putting conspiracy theories out there, but you know, 1223 00:54:32,239 --> 00:54:35,440 Speaker 5: probably a little bit of that hesitancy has been a 1224 00:54:35,480 --> 00:54:37,480 Speaker 5: little bit of the tryhard that we've seen out of 1225 00:54:37,520 --> 00:54:39,680 Speaker 5: our guys. And I don't know if it appears that 1226 00:54:39,760 --> 00:54:43,279 Speaker 5: way on TV or in the sands, but I think 1227 00:54:43,320 --> 00:54:46,080 Speaker 5: if we're guilty, if anything, as a group, it's just 1228 00:54:46,200 --> 00:54:48,799 Speaker 5: trying a little too hard to do well and to win. 1229 00:54:48,880 --> 00:54:51,839 Speaker 5: And when you do that, you're not loose and you're 1230 00:54:51,840 --> 00:54:54,400 Speaker 5: not yourself and you tend to lock up a little 1231 00:54:54,400 --> 00:54:57,319 Speaker 5: bit in situations. And again I think there's been some 1232 00:54:57,360 --> 00:55:01,560 Speaker 5: situations in particular on offense where we've drawn ball four, 1233 00:55:02,520 --> 00:55:06,120 Speaker 5: but our guys haven't used that so but we've also 1234 00:55:06,160 --> 00:55:08,760 Speaker 5: seen if you use it early, all of a sudden, 1235 00:55:08,760 --> 00:55:11,200 Speaker 5: now you're a little bit hamstrung in the middle innings 1236 00:55:11,239 --> 00:55:14,160 Speaker 5: because you don't want to spend that second one and 1237 00:55:14,320 --> 00:55:18,040 Speaker 5: go through the last four four three innings even without one. 1238 00:55:18,239 --> 00:55:20,640 Speaker 3: Yeah, padres blue one early yesterday. Listen, we could go 1239 00:55:20,680 --> 00:55:22,080 Speaker 3: on and on and on and on, but we're talking. 1240 00:55:22,120 --> 00:55:24,560 Speaker 3: No managers experience this first California earthquake. He's got he's 1241 00:55:24,560 --> 00:55:26,480 Speaker 3: got to get his bearings. So we're gonna let you go, 1242 00:55:26,520 --> 00:55:28,200 Speaker 3: but rapid fire just at the end. 1243 00:55:28,239 --> 00:55:32,520 Speaker 2: Some fun ones. If anybody from Knoxville or Missouri. 1244 00:55:32,200 --> 00:55:34,960 Speaker 3: Or Arkansas texted you in the past week and said, hey, Tony, 1245 00:55:35,000 --> 00:55:36,320 Speaker 3: how's the show. 1246 00:55:36,440 --> 00:55:37,240 Speaker 2: What's your answer? 1247 00:55:40,040 --> 00:55:41,960 Speaker 5: You know what, I gotta be honest. I had to 1248 00:55:42,000 --> 00:55:45,239 Speaker 5: comment the hotel, accommodations and the food are a little 1249 00:55:45,280 --> 00:55:45,720 Speaker 5: bit better. 1250 00:55:47,160 --> 00:55:49,000 Speaker 2: Yeah, it's like that crash stame. 1251 00:55:49,280 --> 00:55:53,719 Speaker 5: I really yeah, I really enjoyed working in Arkansas, but 1252 00:55:53,800 --> 00:55:57,879 Speaker 5: we actually finished our season there as an opponent, and 1253 00:55:58,120 --> 00:56:02,399 Speaker 5: the Fairfield in Fairfield in and in Fayetville, Arkansas. You're 1254 00:56:02,440 --> 00:56:03,960 Speaker 5: on a little bit of a remote island. 1255 00:56:03,960 --> 00:56:06,400 Speaker 2: Now it's not the Hotel del Coronado. 1256 00:56:06,680 --> 00:56:07,759 Speaker 1: No. Yeah. 1257 00:56:07,840 --> 00:56:10,440 Speaker 5: And also I was chatting with one of the Tennessee 1258 00:56:10,480 --> 00:56:14,200 Speaker 5: players and we had a good conversation going. But I said, 1259 00:56:14,239 --> 00:56:16,880 Speaker 5: all right, man, I gotta get going. I got He 1260 00:56:16,920 --> 00:56:19,960 Speaker 5: had a midweek game going against a non conference opponent, 1261 00:56:20,360 --> 00:56:23,200 Speaker 5: and I told him we got Fernando Tatis to worry about. 1262 00:56:23,280 --> 00:56:24,760 Speaker 2: So it's kind of assamical moment. 1263 00:56:25,000 --> 00:56:26,640 Speaker 3: You just mind me of the Crash Davis scene in 1264 00:56:26,680 --> 00:56:29,040 Speaker 3: bull Durham and he's like, all the batting practice balls 1265 00:56:29,040 --> 00:56:30,760 Speaker 3: are white, and they take. 1266 00:56:30,520 --> 00:56:33,440 Speaker 2: Your bags and then we'll get PG. Thirteen. All the 1267 00:56:33,440 --> 00:56:35,279 Speaker 2: women have long legs and brains. Right. 1268 00:56:36,239 --> 00:56:39,640 Speaker 5: But yes, indeed, I'd be lying if I didn't say 1269 00:56:39,640 --> 00:56:40,720 Speaker 5: I thought about that scene. 1270 00:56:41,160 --> 00:56:43,359 Speaker 2: Okay, good minute. Okay, So that's one number two. 1271 00:56:44,160 --> 00:56:46,359 Speaker 3: We love to be flattered here in San Francisco, our 1272 00:56:46,400 --> 00:56:50,000 Speaker 3: beautiful city. Tell us about the park, Stanley, You said, so, 1273 00:56:50,080 --> 00:56:51,920 Speaker 3: I mean you played the Sultanes and there was like 1274 00:56:51,960 --> 00:56:54,120 Speaker 3: two or three people there. Then you played the Yankees 1275 00:56:54,160 --> 00:56:56,360 Speaker 3: and it was forty thousand, and you looked up a 1276 00:56:56,360 --> 00:56:59,040 Speaker 3: couple times, and you looked at the sky and the 1277 00:56:59,040 --> 00:57:01,880 Speaker 3: cove and all that. Can you brag about that site. 1278 00:57:01,920 --> 00:57:03,239 Speaker 3: Tony tell us how awesome it was. 1279 00:57:04,800 --> 00:57:07,560 Speaker 5: Just the whole vibe of the city, because my family's here, 1280 00:57:07,680 --> 00:57:09,880 Speaker 5: and you know, we had the off days here and 1281 00:57:09,880 --> 00:57:14,640 Speaker 5: walking the streets. And I come from the Midwest, born 1282 00:57:14,840 --> 00:57:17,960 Speaker 5: and then lived in the East Coast, And one thing 1283 00:57:18,000 --> 00:57:20,000 Speaker 5: that was talked about a bunch and I was fortunate 1284 00:57:20,040 --> 00:57:23,040 Speaker 5: enough to meet the mayor, was how the new mayor 1285 00:57:23,080 --> 00:57:25,680 Speaker 5: has impacted the city. I only know what I know. 1286 00:57:25,880 --> 00:57:29,680 Speaker 5: I was here a bunch, you know, a couple decades ago, 1287 00:57:29,840 --> 00:57:33,920 Speaker 5: and maybe a little closer to in recent time. I've 1288 00:57:33,960 --> 00:57:37,040 Speaker 5: always loved the city, but whatever's going on right now. 1289 00:57:37,320 --> 00:57:40,720 Speaker 5: Maybe it was the magic of opening day. Just the vibe, 1290 00:57:41,480 --> 00:57:46,040 Speaker 5: the energy, the look of was phenomenal outside the park, 1291 00:57:46,400 --> 00:57:49,720 Speaker 5: inside the park, the national anthem, everything that had to 1292 00:57:49,760 --> 00:57:53,160 Speaker 5: go with it was so great that I found myself 1293 00:57:53,200 --> 00:57:55,080 Speaker 5: maybe not enjoying it as much as I should have, 1294 00:57:55,200 --> 00:57:57,440 Speaker 5: because you don't want to get distracted from the game, 1295 00:57:58,120 --> 00:58:03,120 Speaker 5: and so I kind of looked to being Game fifty 1296 00:58:03,240 --> 00:58:05,520 Speaker 5: six or whatever number you want to attach to it, 1297 00:58:05,560 --> 00:58:08,680 Speaker 5: and being at home and really kind of taking in 1298 00:58:08,760 --> 00:58:12,480 Speaker 5: time to relish in the unique environment we have because 1299 00:58:13,000 --> 00:58:16,320 Speaker 5: you got the fans here active. I thought we had 1300 00:58:16,320 --> 00:58:19,160 Speaker 5: that too in the FBC is the fans are big 1301 00:58:19,160 --> 00:58:21,960 Speaker 5: in number, but that doesn't mean a lot unless they're active. 1302 00:58:22,520 --> 00:58:25,280 Speaker 5: And they just seem to be very active here. And 1303 00:58:25,320 --> 00:58:29,280 Speaker 5: then you get views from our stadium that are during 1304 00:58:29,320 --> 00:58:32,400 Speaker 5: pre game when I'm moving around. It's a great park. 1305 00:58:32,480 --> 00:58:34,800 Speaker 5: Everybody knows that. I'm jealous of the people that get 1306 00:58:34,840 --> 00:58:38,840 Speaker 5: the overhead views. You know, I rewatched the games and 1307 00:58:39,040 --> 00:58:41,760 Speaker 5: every now and then they'll show that overhead view and 1308 00:58:41,880 --> 00:58:44,320 Speaker 5: get the bay and everything else. It's it's incredible. 1309 00:58:44,440 --> 00:58:46,840 Speaker 3: Now the drones that NBC Sports be Area US have 1310 00:58:46,880 --> 00:58:47,760 Speaker 3: been a game changer. 1311 00:58:47,880 --> 00:58:51,080 Speaker 2: It's just spectacular. So I'm glad you're all enjoying that. 1312 00:58:51,160 --> 00:58:53,160 Speaker 3: And by the way, the final most important question is 1313 00:58:53,200 --> 00:58:54,880 Speaker 3: what did you say to the heckler. 1314 00:58:54,480 --> 00:58:55,240 Speaker 2: In San Diego? 1315 00:58:58,240 --> 00:58:59,680 Speaker 5: Is there one guy in particular? 1316 00:58:59,800 --> 00:59:03,080 Speaker 3: Well, so, when you you won your first game, you 1317 00:59:03,120 --> 00:59:04,880 Speaker 3: turned around and said something to the crowd. 1318 00:59:05,000 --> 00:59:07,360 Speaker 2: We thought it was to maybe mom and dad or sisters. 1319 00:59:07,640 --> 00:59:12,640 Speaker 5: Oh yeah, there was a guy that just would not 1320 00:59:12,720 --> 00:59:15,240 Speaker 5: stop yelling at me. But he wasn't He wasn't. I 1321 00:59:15,240 --> 00:59:17,400 Speaker 5: don't know if he was a Giants fan or Padres fan. 1322 00:59:17,480 --> 00:59:21,520 Speaker 5: He just kept yelling and you know, those seats wrap 1323 00:59:21,600 --> 00:59:23,920 Speaker 5: around the dugouts like a lot of these parks. Now 1324 00:59:23,920 --> 00:59:26,360 Speaker 5: they want you close to the action. So I just 1325 00:59:26,440 --> 00:59:29,080 Speaker 5: looked and kind of gave a thumbs up, and uh, 1326 00:59:29,400 --> 00:59:31,040 Speaker 5: you know, to this day, I don't know if he 1327 00:59:31,200 --> 00:59:33,080 Speaker 5: was four or against, but he was loud. 1328 00:59:33,200 --> 00:59:33,520 Speaker 2: Okay. 1329 00:59:34,600 --> 00:59:38,000 Speaker 5: Now, now yesterday, I know which guys were definitely not 1330 00:59:38,120 --> 00:59:42,120 Speaker 5: for the Giants. I think old Harry bad, probably because 1331 00:59:42,120 --> 00:59:46,160 Speaker 5: he looked like Randy Macho man Savage in a baseball uniform. 1332 00:59:46,920 --> 00:59:49,000 Speaker 5: You know, they like talking to him. I can tell 1333 00:59:49,040 --> 00:59:49,200 Speaker 5: you that. 1334 00:59:50,200 --> 00:59:52,120 Speaker 2: Tots there you go, all right, listen, we're getting to 1335 00:59:52,120 --> 00:59:53,840 Speaker 2: know you. Everybody's getting to know you. It was great 1336 00:59:53,880 --> 00:59:54,600 Speaker 2: to take away. Hey. 1337 00:59:54,760 --> 00:59:56,520 Speaker 3: You know, the Giants only beat the Padres three times 1338 00:59:56,600 --> 00:59:58,840 Speaker 3: last year, and you got him twice in one series 1339 00:59:58,920 --> 01:00:01,720 Speaker 3: in their parks. So that's pretty good. Now, as you 1340 01:00:01,760 --> 01:00:04,200 Speaker 3: said to your buddy from Tennessee, hey, I gotta go. 1341 01:00:04,320 --> 01:00:06,720 Speaker 3: I got the New York Metropolitans to worry about.
